bibby for you, obsethed's have minimal rocker and are stiffer whereas bibby's will be softer and more jibby feeling

have you thought about the reno rocker?

they are park specific but they are pretty wide for a park specific ski and they also have rocker so they will float better in the pow.

No, the Reno Rocker is one of the stiffer reverse camber skis on the market as well as the Bibby's.  Just go the Bibby's myself and they are the truth.

I have, i used to own both skis actually, and i can disagree and agree with some of the posts here, the obseths actually arent that stiff, maybe even softer then bibbys, but bibbys are a much more fun ski, and definitly a more backcounry jib ski.   I ride bibbys as my main ski right now
